    It'd seem a bit odd to pair an Ion-based nettop with anything less than the dual-core 330.

    About bloody time.. been waiting for an Ion system to ship (if this is "imminent")

    Ideally yes a dual core Ion system..... and a nicer case than that....

    Maybe AppleTV Mk2 will be Ion.. who knows...

    Apart from the 330 not supporting EIST - not great in an alledged low-power system Dunno if Intel are going to produce a dual-core that *will* have EIST...

    I'm still mind-blown by the fact that you can buy a mini-itx platform with built in Atom 330 for about £75 - four virtual cores! WTF!??!?!?!
